VARRANTIZATIO

Varrantizatio (v-ran-ti-zay-shee-oh) is a legal term used in the historical Scots law. It refers to a warranty, which is a guarantee or promise made by a seller to a buyer that the product being sold is of good quality and will function as intended.

Example 1: In the 18th century, a blacksmith selling a horse-drawn carriage would provide a varrantizatio to the buyer, promising that the carriage was well-built and would last for many years.

Example 2: A seller of a piece of land would provide a varrantizatio to the buyer, guaranteeing that the land was free of any legal disputes or claims.

The examples illustrate how a varrantizatio was used in historical Scots law to provide a guarantee or promise to a buyer that the product being sold was of good quality and free from any legal disputes or claims. This legal term was commonly used in the sale of goods and property, and it ensured that buyers were protected from any defects or issues with their purchase.
